days.
It’s been another wonderful
term at Nowendoc Public and
the children (and staff) de-
serve a well earned break.
Our term 3 calendar is al-
ready filling up fast so have
fun in the holidays, enjoy
your family time and be safe.
Keep smiling!
Flu, fire and frozen pipes
have certainly caused a stir
for our last couple of weeks
of term.
At least we can say the chil-
dren of Nowendoc have had
a diverse range of hot and
cold experiences to help pre-
pare them for any unex-
pected surprises!
Thank you to the children for
coping so well and to the
parents for their understand-
ing. Thanks also to the terrific
staff here for their flexibility,
humour and support.
Amidst all the mayhem , we
have spent a very enjoyable
day at Niangala to celebrate
NAIDOC Day. Aboriginal
Consultants and Elders, from
Tamworth led us through
rotations highlighting Dream-
ing stories, Boomerang
Throwing, Johnny Cakes on
the campfire and Totem
Painting. Thank you to par-
ents for helping with
transport.
Tracey Worth and the chil-
dren’s creative entry into the
Waste into Art competition
received a certificate. I found
their chosen topic highly
amusing as it revealed in-
sights into the children’s
learning. We have had a
couple of litterbugs creep into
the school and the school
bus this term, resulting in
many discussions about re-
specting the environment. I
do hope Max enjoys the pho-
tos of their creation.
Despite the frost and chilly
weather of late our vegetable
garden continues to thrive.
Children will be arriving home
on Friday afternoon with a
selection of greens for fami-
lies to enjoy during the holi-

I was very impressed with
the effort students put into
their class entry for the Wal-
cha Councils, Waste into
Art competition. All seven
students were major con-
tributors to the artwork,
working as a team to get it
completed in time. Their
entry was called “Snug
Bugs” and was made en-
tirely from recycled materi-
als, as was the criteria for
the competition. The stu-

Now and Then By Lana Clifford
Now I go to school,
Then I went to preschool.
Now I carry big loads of wood,
Then I carried a doll.
Now I play with my DSi,
Then I played with teddies.
Now I have a calf,
Then I had a pet spider.
Now I am living on a farm,
Then I lived in the city.
Now I live with two brothers and one sister,
Then I lived with only one brother.
Now I am in grade four,
Then I didn’t go to school.
Now I walk,
Then I crawled.
Now I am a big girl,
Then I was a little toddler.
Now I am ten years old,
Then I was four years old.
Mary’s Birthday
My mum is like Wonder Woman,
She can do anything,
Cook things, wash things and love me.
My mum is as tall as a giraffe,
And as loving as a chimp,
Small, comfy and smart.
My mum is like a robot,
Looking after me each day,
Busy as a bee.
My mum has a voice like a harmony of angels,
Always protective,
And making me happy.
She cares for me like a lion,
Keeping me safe.
My mum is wonderful...
Because she is my mum!

When Echidna Came to School
At recess, on Monday, we saw an echidna. We went to look at him eating some ants.
Then he started walking and we followed him to the sandpit. He went past the vegie
patch, across the playground and stopped at the sandpit. We watched the echidna and
then we took photos of him. I liked it when the echidna was lying sunbaking next to the
pot.
Emily, year 1
An echidna was going past the steps. Then the other echidna smelt some ants and they
smelt delicious so he went looking for them. He ate one and then he accidentally got
one stuck up his nostril. Then he went crazy, lying on his back and wriggling and wrig-
gling.
